WOMAN AND THE HOME.
The Atmosphere OF Sweet Pcsce which
should Prevade Every Family.


Nothing so helps woman through
the long weary days Of work. as tho
that what she does is appre
ciated by those she loves and for whom
she tolls. Think of this, husbands and
fathers, and remember that kind word
is always in season. H,on some morn
ing, the coffee is shade too brown to
suit your taste, do not scold about it;
and, on every other morning when it is
delicious, say SO. Try this way and you
will find your coffee, and every thing
else, to your taste much oftener; and
besides, you will give the ones you
ought to love best the sweet conscious.
ness that they are doing their work
we'll, and giving satisfaction to the one,
Of all others, they most desire to please
thus inspiring them with renewed
energy to strive for the merited re-
ward OF kind, appreciative words.
And so shall an atmosphere OF
peace, and sweet home happiness como
to pervade the whole house, born and
nurtured into beautiful, fragrant BIOS
soming by your own kind words and
deeds. Let us all remember, too, that
the higher and happier our home life,
the more wisely and better we may
hope to do the work that lies waiting
for us beyond it. A pleasant place to
.come home to- is the greatest ener-
gizer man can have. Then let us
strive with an earnest and constant pur-
pose to make and keep the home cheer
full, inviting and pleasant.
Every home should be brightly and
tastefully furnished, freely-if carefully
used-and every table should be regular
ly spread with reasonable variety OF
good, wholesome and appetizing food
Economy is a very good thing; but wher
itdegenerates into unnecessary ''serimp
ing" it becomes meanness. The very
poor are often obliged to stint; but, wha
their necessity makes virtue, is really
q crime in the comfortably situated
What are delicious things made for, i
not to be eatenP The appetite claims
certain amount of what some conside
luxuries to satisfy it, and this should be
supplied in reasonable quantity at tn
home table. A craving, unsatislie'
stomach is dangerous thing, whethe
it is the result of over indulgence in i'm
proper, or the want Of satisfying food

The two members got on the elevator

great belt OF the large engine wheel,

carried of by wire attached to tho

person holding the wire grasping a
small brass chain attached to the railing
around the engines wheel. The system
is thus filled quietly with electricity.

The Feminine Bachelor.

The feminine bachelor is becoming
a feature of New York. The feminine
bachelor is young, unmarried
woman, living by herself, or with a
companion like herself, to whom soci-
ETY. by common consent allows an in
dividual freedom never dreamed of by
the chaperoned girl. She is fully ca
pable OF taking care of herself, and
her numbers multiply every season.
She is an art student, a medical
student, she is learning music or
shorthand. She has literary yearn-
ings ,sand sends her manuscript to all
the publishers. She is on an inde-
pendent footing, comes and goes as
she pleases, holds herself bound to
nu code OF propriety save her own,
and has induced society to accept her
code as for her as good one as could
be. She has com Jaratively few ac-
quaintances of the other sex. Men are
apt to like her and she is apt to like
them, but she is too busy to let the as
sociation 60 very far.
The true feminine bachelor is never
a pessimist. She likes New York she
rejoices in her own perfect freedom,
and she dissipates in a bright, inno-
cent, light-hearted way that is more
like the jeviality Of boys and girls
than the dignity Of three decades Of
years. The feminine bachelor goes to
concerts and lectures and to the thea
ter great deal. She is always there,
and is the best posted woman on
operas and plays in the city. She
comes alone and she goes home alone,
and nobody molests her or makes her
afraid.-fN. Y. Mail and Express.

Population of China.

The population OF China is known
to have been greatly overestimated by
the Chinese themselves in the earlier
days of European intercourse. A
recent Chinese official report places
the number Of inhabitants at 1928, ,O00,-
900. This agrees quite closely with
the estimates of European statisti-
clans. In 1842 the population of
China was supposed to be about
413, 100000, but whether there has
been any such decrease as these
figures indicate cannot be known,
though it seems to be much more
probable that the 1842 census returns
were exaggerated. The area of China
proper is less than half that of the
United States and territories, exclu-
sive of Alaska, and yet it contains six
times the number of inhabitants, if
these late official returns are correct.
